CIVR Practitioner Day
It has become a tradition that the final day of the CIVR is a practitioners day where the researchers are joined by practitioners. The CIVR Practitioner Chairs set-up the program in collaboration with the EU Coordinated Action CHORUS. The latter aims to create an ecosystem between multimedia search engine research initiatives and related industry.
Multimedia search systems, engines and services gained strong interest and support, not only from academia and industry, but also from (inter)national authorities supporting these initiatives. The practitioner day aims to bring together and provide participants from industry (content owners, producers, creators, archives, services, ..), policy makers, academic and industrial researchers with an overview about these areas.
The practitioner day will start with sharing information about the upcoming related EU FP7 Calls and continue with the presentation of several selected EU initiatives (morning session). In the early afternoon session several already realized commercial solutions will be presented. During the late afternoon session several presentations will sketch or share ideas about ‘Research to Business’ roadmaps or needs to commercially successful apply research results. The practitioner day will be concluded with a panel and demo session (evening session).
